Constitutional Conference
taps dissent
The FIRST Constitutional Conference in
Auckland, held recently in Auckland, delivered disturbing
information about governance in New Zealand.
Organiser, Kerry Bevin, Leader of the Republic of New Zealand Party said revolutionary reform is imperative.
“It is alarming that we are one of a just a few countries without a proper written constitution to protect Democracy.”
Anthony Ravlich of the Human Rights Council was incensed at the omission of basic rights in the Bill of Rights and the U.N. charter.
“The underclass tragedy is entrenched, bureaucratic abuse continues and discrimination by elites has cost kiwis trapped in poverty their lives and sanity.”
Human Rights Commissioner, Rosslyn Noonan, said the Commission is involved in promoting knowledge about Human Rights. She showed participants materials prepared by the Commission which aim to educate people about Human Rights.
Vince Seimer from Kiwis first, wrongfully imprisoned and with five cases currently before the Supreme Court, asserts that judicial activism is out of control in New Zealand.
“Freedom of speech is not allowed.”
Penny Bright from Transparency International was adamant that corruption that divests tax payers and rate payers of their assets is rife.
Jim Bagnall, of Project Reunion, said there is sustained persecution of children and fathers in the Family Court.
“It’s a holocaust,” he said
The Conference Statement declared
“Many New Zealanders are not heard. Citizens must be treated as persons not property by government. The Justice system has failed and breaches human rights. Everyone has inalienable rights that must be protected by a Constitution.”
The SECOND Constitutional Conference for Revolutionary Reform will be on Saturday March 24, 2012. Although the venue has yet to be confirmed, Kerry Bevin said it is likely to be in Wellington.
